Skiing is a passion for many people. There are some who are still learning skiing and others are really good in the art yet fail at times. Accidents never tell before happening and I wonder what we will do if we had a collision some time, especially if someone is on the snowboard because it’s really hard to control your speed with a snowboard.

It may actually be really risky for our lives as well as others who are skiing around us. Now that was when I was engrossed and fully occupied in my thoughts, I got to know about this Twin Parabolic Ski, which is the ultimate skiing gadget especially made for the future generation.

Designed and thought by Charlie Pyott, the Twin Parabolic Ski is a great idea. Although there is not much information if actually some one has been using the Twin Parabolic Ski or not, yet there is no doubt that the concept is out of the world. it seems Charlie Pyott has actually done a lot of brainstorming and research to come up with this enthusiastic idea that is quite promising. So even if you cant use the Twin Parabolic Ski, 15 years down the lane, our next generation will have a mind boggling time with them.

Forget the concept of windows with OLED Wallpaper

OLED Wallpaper

 

Toshiba as always has done it again. If there is any company that knows how to make reel into real, it definitely is Toshiba. And this time again they have given a concept that is indeed out of the world. If you wondering whose brain works so fast and thinks such extraordinary concepts then again all the applause for selecting commendable executives goes to Toshiba. This time the company is busy creating something called an OLED, i.e., the Organic Light-Emitting Diode. Its an ultra thin display which the company claims can be used as a wallpaper for you home and thus transforming a mere wall into television. Now that sounds interesting. Isn’t it?

Lets see how it actually works. Nano particles get self assembled in the wallpaper that fabricates discordants that are immensely fine and are further used to redirect light which this wallpaper uses. But it seems that the commercial production of these wallpapers wont take place in the near future because of the extraordinary technology. Well definitely that can be disappointing as the entire project seems so intelligent that its difficult to resist the temptation of having a OLED wallpaper in your house.

Just imagine when this OLED wallpaper will actually hit the market, how would be the scene like? There would be no need to select a color for your wall. You could have an entire garden scene in your drawing room wall giving the feel of a big garden outside. No needs to get cartoon painted in your kids’ rooms walls when the entire Disney world can keep moving over the wall. And your wife always wanted a bright sunny morning to inspire her to cook?

Well, with OLED wallpapers, she could have whatever she wanted in her kitchen wall. Feels like living a dream? Well one day with more advancement in technology, you will indeed live this dream. All it would take is some more patience.
